This article delves into the concept of pattern matching in Elixir, a powerful tool borrowed from its parent language Erlang and predecessor Prolog. It explains how Elixir allows one-sided pattern matching and also introduces the idea of two-sided pattern matching, known as unification. The article further guides through the implementation of unification in Elixir, demonstrating how it works to solve symbolic equations and its potential application in logic programming.
